Sometimes painting a picture can be an inspiration and sometimes an obbsession... Sometimes it can be both.

On my vacation I was fortunate enough to have a friends who lent me the use of their lake home in beautiful northern Wisconsin. On a whim I packed my acrylic paints and three of my favorite paint brushes. We were crusing along Hwy 77 and happened upon a bald eagle doing the dignified thing bald eagles do - eating road kill. Despite the buzzard-like behavior it was an awesome spectacle. Inspiration struck!

Obbsession soon took over. Sitting in the natural light of a Wisconsin summer on the shores of Lower Kimball Lake I spent the next three days painting this:

Two Eagles

(acrylic 16X20)

( unfortunately some of the fine detail is lost in the rendering of images, but you get the idea! )

Higher Math

OK, I'll bite. What is this?

Well, that's a good question... I can't wait to find out either!
